The Commander of UNIFIL continues to show how utterly useless both he and his troops are.
Commander of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) Maj.-Gen. Claudio Graziano on Thursday accused Israel of violating UN Security Council Resolution 1701 that brought an end to the Second Lebanon War.
During a press conference at the United Nations headquarters in New York, Graziano cited the IAF forays over Lebanon and the village of Ghajar, which he called “a permanent violation of 1701” and “a permanent area under occupation.”
A further violation, according to Graziano, was Israel’s failure to provide maps of all the locations where it dropped cluster bombs during the 2006 war.
In contrast, he said that the UN enjoyed excellent cooperation with Hizbullah and with the local Lebanese people.
